Nope, but you can max it out at the most at 6GB of ram. 8GB would cause it to crash and run unusable.

thanks man, i just ordered a 4gb, so i will keep one of the original 2gb, and replace the other one with 4gb...

i forgot my mac was so old, i thought 8gb wouldnt be a problem at all...
oh well.....
